It kinda caught my eye if I am being totally honest because of the nude woman and her face covered with a butterfly.

I didn't think much of it. If I'm being totally honest. I didn't actually think much of it. It is a good book cover and I love the imagery also.

I'm not keen on the cover. I can't see how a naked woman with a butterfly head relates to alchemy.

I thought the same thing.

The cover of *The Riddle of Alchemy* is visually striking with its surreal imagery of a butterfly-winged figure in front of mysterious doors, invoking curiosity and a sense of mystery and wonder.
